Skyscrapers are the most iconic part of any citys horizon. Brand-new ones sprout up all the time, always completing for the “worlds highest.” However this video reveals that height isnt the only stat that matters: Total area does, too.
The video comes from YouTube channel The B1M, which is dedicated to all-things building and construction. Due to the fact that some of these structures are incredibly high doesnt really mean that theyre big, it focuses on how just. The video goes on to take a look at a few of the highest structures throughout the world and compare them using their total location instead. Dubais Burj Khalifa is the highest building on Earth (2,722 feet tall) however in terms of location, it does not come anywhere close to the biggest buildings (just 3.3 million square feet).
To gain a precise measurement, The B1M followed the lead of the Council on Tall Buildings and Urban Habitats methodology, just considering the total gross floor area of a towers footprint and excluding adjacent podiums, connected buildings, and other towers within the overall buildings advancement.
The biggest structure, as determined by this channel, is awarded to Chinas Ping An International Finance Center. Its just 1,965 feet tall, it has over 5.3 million square feet of area, omitting its 968,000 square-foot basement. The video features other buildings like the Empire State Building, 30 Hudson Yards, Marina Bay Sands, the Renaissance Center, and the Petronas Towers.
